A vector field on a K\"ahler manifold is called c-projective if its flow preserves the J-planar curves. We give a complete local classification of K\"ahler real 4-dimensional manifolds that admit an essential c-projective vector field. An…

An LCK (locally conformally Kahler) manifold is a complex manifold admitting a Hermitian form $\omega$ which satisfies $d\omega =\omega\wedge \theta$, where $\theta$ is a closed 1-form, called the Lee form. An LCK manifold is called Vaisman…

Twistor forms are a natural generalization of conformal vector fields on Riemannian manifolds. They are defined as sections in the kernel of a conformally invariant first order differential operator. We study twistor forms on compact…

On an almost complex manifold $(M,J)$, a pluricanonical locally conformally almost K\"ahler (LCAK) metric $g$ is induced by a locally conformally symplectic structure $(F,\theta)$ of the first kind, characterized by the fact that $D\theta$…

We define broadly-pluriminimal immersed 2n-submanifold F: M --> N into a Kaehler-Einstein manifold of complex dimension 2n and scalar curvature R. We prove that, if M is compact, n \geq 2, and R < 0, then: (i) Either F has complex or…

A conformal transformation of a semi-Riemannian manifold is essential if there is no conformally equivalent metric for which it is an isometry. For Riemannian manifolds the existence of an essential conformal transformation forces the…

The aim of this paper is twofold. First, we study HKKN stratifications, both algebraically and analytically, for a Cartesian product between a vector space and a compact K{\"a}hler manifold. We then use these stratifications to prove…

In the first part of this note we study compact Riemannian manifolds (M,g) whose Riemannian product with R is conformally Einstein. We then consider compact 6--dimensional almost Hermitian manifolds of type W_1+W_4 in the Gray--Hervella…

A manifold is locally \emph{$k$-fold symmetric}, if for any point and any $k$-dimensional vector subspace tangent to this point there exists a local isometry such that this point is a fixed point and the differential of the isometry…

We discuss a correspondence between certain contact pairs on the one hand, and certain locally conformally symplectic forms on the other. In particular, we characterize these structures through suspensions of contactomorphisms. If the…
